Racing to complete her doctoral research, Elizabeth MacPherson is completely booked for the summer - until her Scottish fiance calls from across the seas with a once-in-a-lifetime invitation to tea with Her Majesty The Queen. There's a hitch, of course - no friends or fiances allowed, only spouses. Royalty enthusiast that she is, Elizabeth solves the dilemma by planning a large formal wedding in five weeks. In between Elizabeth's fitting and flowers, local widow Clarine Mason receives word that her dear husband, Emmet, has died on a highway in San Diego. Odd, thinks Mrs. Mason, as the errant Emmet died five years before, and she's got the urn of ashes to prove it.

Just whose ashes those are is what Elizabeth must discover, if tartan bridesmaids' dresses, scones with tea, and all the accoutrements necessary for the joining of two noble clams don't bury her first!
